Found a 1987 924S for sale. 67k miles, idles smoothly, AC works, brakes evenly, shifts good. Dash has usual cracks at leading edge. Rear glass looks good. Guy wants $6k for it.

Found some water (!) in the rear pocket behind the passenger right wheel - leaking sunroof drain hose?

Anything in particular that needs to be checked on these cars? What's their "Hell hole"? I know these use the same block as the 944 and maintenance is similar as a 944.

Thanks!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) with all the above. Also that water in compartment may also be due to the rear
hatch glass shifting in its frame. My sons 944 had that issue. Glass had to come out and be resealed.
